Corpus-Paul

[Zeba Crook <zeba.crook AT utoronto.ca>]

Mesfin, this is going to come across as elitist, but these lists are designed 
for
academic discussion at a high level of discourse.  Should we be lowering the 
bar so
much that we have to explain basic terminology like this?  I don't think so.  
I'm
surprised the guy wasn't told already to leave the list.  This isn't an 
undergrad
class.  We all have enough of that level of discourse.
